provide consumers the opportunity to visit with their favorite beauty editor at the counter of a leading
beauty brand for a 20-minute one-on-one consultation, in exchange for a $30 donation to the Look

the appearance-related side effects of their treatment. Since the program began 23 years ago, it has
served more than 800,000 people with cancer in the U.S. and more than 1.2 million people with cancer
around the world.
